everything that didnt have an api i could integrate with, but does have a janky website is now something i can put into a locally-run workflow.
its not a panacea since i cant deploy it anywhere beyond my colleagues dev machines, but it enables a tone of automation that was otherwise a.big commitment, both from my team, and each of those janky website owners.
it was possible to do this website scraping before, but nobody was thinking about it in a plug and play manner
